Not bad Monkey..... .but what I was trying to indicate is that I have seen the opposite happen nearly as many times as the saying has been true.
The evening red sky is the setting sun reflected off the clouds as you say.
The morning red sun is most usually from advection fog - the type you get after a cloudless night.
The inference being that if the fog thickens - which it often does when there is high ground around - then the shepherds will lose their sheep in the fog.
Now can you expain to me why in conditions of exceptional visibility why the sun will turn green for the last 1 or 2 seconds before it sets?
The phenomena known as the green flash. This question has nothing to do with the Irish.
